Intec Telecom Systems and IBM have completed a performance benchmark of Intec Convergent Billing v6, the latest version of the former's customer care and billing system, on IBM System p5 servers. The successful completion of the benchmarking exercise demonstrates the solution's capability to handle a sustained throughput equivalent to the needs of a customer base of 60 million prepaid subscribers, Intec says.
The benchmark was based on a current customer implementation and reflected realistic operating conditions and data.
Intec Convergent Billing v6 is designed to offer scalable, leading-edge performance for any combination of payment method and communications technology, including prepaid and postpaid, fixed, wireless, and next-generation services, for operators and service providers of all types and sizes, Intec says.
